Queen Falls to Quads
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Nick Palma in the big blind was involved in a hand with Alexander Queen from under the gun.
With the board reading A♠8♦8♠8♥2♠ and around 275,000 in the pot Palma checked. Queen bet 75,000 before calling a raise to 150,000 from Palma.
The A♥ river put a full house on the board and saw Palma bet enough to force his opponent all in. After only a moment's hesitation, Queen called off for his remaining 225,000 holding A♣3♣ for the high boat but was felled by Palma's 9♠8♣ for quads to bring the tournament down to the final four tables.
